Explore Food Sampling and Souvenir Shopping at the Lively Shopping Street
About this spot
A bustling Tokyo shopping street par excellence, with about 400 shops lining the approximately 400-meter stretch beneath the elevated tracks from Ueno Station to Okachimachi Station. Fresh seafood and dried goods vendors call out with lively enthusiasm, fruit skewers and chocolate pick-and-mix options fill the air with a festival atmosphere. You can enjoy food sampling while heading to the station, a perfect way to wrap up your day as a family.
Tips
The passageway gets crowded in the evening, so consider switching from a stroller to a baby carrier for safety. Having small change makes food sampling smoother. In crowded areas, holding hands with children is essential to prevent getting separated.
Best time to visit
Allow 30 to 60 minutes. Early evening is when the street is most vibrant.
